Freelance Craft CMS Developer

Although I work mostly with Drupal, I also work with Craft CMS — supporting, developing and maintaining sites built on the excellent Craft CMS.

Why Craft CMS?

The popular platforms like Drupal and WordPress are very good but they often suffer from two major problems:

1. Drupal sites are typically built with little thought to the editorial experience. So, once a Drupal site is built, content editors often then need to "jump through hoops", so to speak, to get content published on the site in the way they want it to appear.

2. Conversely, WordPress sites generally ship with a much nicer editorial workflow. This results in a better experience for content editors. However, the code that runs a WordPress site can have the tendency to get very messy, very quickly. This is due to the fact that WordPress is less strict about the way it "allows itself" to be themed and extended.

Note: This is also one of the reasons WordPress sites get hacked more then Drupal sites.

Craft CMS, however, with it's strict MVC architecture (Yii), it's simple templating system (Twig), and a well thought out and easily extendable editorial back-end, seems to be solving these issues for a lot of people.

For the reasons (amongst others), Craft CMS has been picking up some nice market share from the big platforms.

&ast; BuiltWith data is not a complete snapshot of the web so we can assume these numbers are quite conservative.

So, because of my years of experience with Drupal, I'm now helping an increasing number of companies with their Craft CMS sites — notably those companies who have migrated from (or are migrating from) Drupal to Craft CMS.

If your site is built on Craft CMS and you need support, development, or maintenance, just send me a message below and I'll get back to you.
